Kazuo waited tremblingly outside the king's tent for a long time before the low-browed slave came out and invited him in.
Hua Yi was the only one left in Wang's tent. There was a huge incense burner next to the stove. Water vapor and mist kept coming out of it. Kazuo sniffled, feeling that it seemed to be the fragrance of flowers mixed with medicine Incense, it is said that the merchants from the south brought it all the way to sell it. They can mix toilet water and spices into water and put it in it. When the fire is low, it will have its own fragrance. Because of Chang'an's poor health, Hua Yi asked the doctor to add herbal medicines that he took daily to make the fragrance a bit bitter, but it was unexpectedly calming.
Kazuo had been very aggrieved for a while, even though he was under Chang'an's command, Chang'an had never made things difficult for him, but the feeling was like sitting on pins and needles, feeling like he had plummeted.
At the beginning, he was still full of enthusiasm and had a headache and brain fever. During the whole day, he was dissatisfied seven times and eight times. Unexpectedly, Hua Yi let him dry out for half a year.
Only then did Kazuo panic, and the fire blisters in his mouth grew twice, otherwise he wouldn't have come to beg Chang'an in private with a shy face.
He thought he was a hero, but as soon as he left the elder's position, he found himself a bear.
Human feelings are cold and warm, and the world is cold and cold. Except for the old tribe brought out by his own Black Eagle tribe, all of these people have the ability to adapt to the wind and the wind. The royal city is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more people. In addition to wealth, who would remember who was the number one warrior in the Black Eagle tribe back then
Isn't this a joke
Hua Yi called him in, but he was not in a hurry to speak. Instead, he sighed first and remained silent for a while before ordering: "Sit."
Back in the leader's tent, in front of Hua Yi, Kazuo, who beat a human head into a dog's head with Bu Dong, carefully sat down, but his butt only touched one side of the chair.
Hua Yi raised his eyes and looked at him. He didn't sleep all night, he seemed a little haggard, and said, "Chang'an mentioned it to me."
Cazzo's back stiffened.
"What do you want me to say?" After another moment of silence, Hua Yi suddenly said such a sentence.
Kazzon hesitated for a while: "I'm... I drank too much that day, yes... I overdid it..."
Before he finished speaking, Hua Yi stood up suddenly, threw the animal skin on his knees on Kazuo's face, and cursed: "Have you done it? Drink too much? Listen to me yourself." , Is this a human thing? If someone beats your son to death for no reason, how about you? Murder pays for life, the city rules are carved, every stroke is engraved on the other side of the city wall, a blind man can do it Touch it out! How do you want me to protect you? Say it yourself! Damn it!"
Kazuo peeled off the animal skin from his face, and looked at Hua Yi who was in a panic, his eyes were red.
Hua Yi seemed to be dizzy with anger, but he didn't notice it.
"Blame me for taking your elder position, I want to kill you bastard! You are wronged, you bastard, can't Wangcheng hold you anymore? You should have been thrown out to me to guard the outer city! You..."
Hua Yi's words were interrupted, because Ka Zuo suddenly sat there and burst into tears.
Hua Yi: "..."
Kazuo is reckless, cunning, irritable, assertive, lawless, and unrestrained. His kung fu is probably much better than his hunting kung fu. He is a thorny guy, but his cry is very open. .
Hua Yi's originally feigned fury made him almost unable to continue acting because of his voice. After standing there for a while, he asked dumbfoundedly, "Who are you yelling at?"
Kazuo couldn't even speak clearly and choked up: "I have committed a heinous crime, I am nothing!"
Hua Yi instinctively wanted to nod his head, thinking that what he said made some sense.
Kazuo slipped down from the chair, hugged Hua Yi's thigh, and wept heartbroken without any regard for his face.
Chang An happened to walk in from the outside without knowing something, opened the door and opened the curtain to see the situation, and immediately shrank his head and retreated without saying a word, with a pale green look on his face.
The next day, Kazuo took a new job and went out of the city quietly with a group of people. He got a promise that once he completed the job properly, he would be given a position at the same level as the Seventh Elder when he came back. Things are not going well, so come and see me.
And within a few days after he left, the merchants in Haizhu City were invited to drink tea one by one by the King of Haidong. In the afternoon, there was news that a team of merchants had been exempted from the interest paid to the city gate for a whole year.
The interest paid to the city gate for the whole year is 40% of the profit. After that, his family can lower the price of everything they sell. If this kind of regulation is made again, won't other merchants in the city lose their way of life
For a while, the veterans spent their money and went around to inquire about the inside story of this matter. Finally, they dug up a few words from the Great Elder Suo Laimu.
The elder, who was as thin and yellow as a monkey, and who was crazy all day long, shook his head and said: "Why? The king spends all day in the king's city in command of the East China Sea, and it is difficult to go out. Naturally, he wants to find someone to be his eyes. He will do what he likes. But a year’s worth of interest at the city gate, is it such a big deal? The entire East China Sea belongs to him, and if he pleases him, there will naturally be many benefits in the future."
The old merchant was sweating, and he didn't dare to ask more questions, but the next day, he racked his brains one by one to ask for connections. He wanted to see the king, and he had been away for a long time. Who didn't have some gossip to say
Unexpectedly, Hua Yi was never seen and wanted to sell, but he didn't want to buy it.
The hearts of the merchants in the king's city floated up, and each other's framers happened from time to time, but the news from all walks of life continued to spread to Hua Yi through various channels they "discovered" by themselves. The letters sent by Zuo through hidden channels echoed each other.
Hua Yi soon knew the general direction of his enemy.
Between the northwestern part of the East China Sea and the extreme northern glaciers, there is a zone where forests and grasslands echo each other. The large plains are exactly where Huayi has mainly planned to reach out over the years. The vegetation is fertile. Whether it is grazing, planting or hunting, there are abundant resources. All mouth watering.
It's just that he didn't have time to make a move, but others would stare at him first. The lights of thousands of houses in the royal city had already buried so many nails in that unknown enemy.
With the light of Ye Mingzhu, Hua Yi said to Suo Laimu: "He has the time to bury nails, why didn't he come to challenge earlier?"
Suo Laimu can't compare to his physical strength day and night. Since he was dug out of the bed on the wedding night, he couldn't sleep well for a long time. He was already exhausted, rubbed his face, and said in a vague voice: " Since this person is ambitious, he definitely wants to settle inside first, and then go abroad. Although the exact news from Kazuo has not yet come, I guess, he probably swallowed up all the tribes and whales on the grassland first, and then went out. I have the energy to take care of your affairs."
Hua Yi smiled: "It seems that my dear friend and I thought of going together."
Suo Laimu yawned and said casually: "Maybe you two are brothers who have been separated for many years..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly became agitated, sobered up, and realized that he had made a slip of the tongue.
Unexpectedly, Hua Yi didn't even change his expression, instead he stared at the faintly shining Ye Mingzhu beside him in a daze.
"King?" Suo Laimu asked in a low voice, "Hua Yi?"
Hua Yi blinked, as if waking up from a small distraction, Suo Laimu observed his words, understood, and asked in a low voice: "Why, Chang'an and you are still in a tantrum, and the quarrel is not over yet?"
Hua Yi coughed dryly, raised his hand grandly and said, "Uh... the great elder has worked hard these past few days, go back and rest early, or Madam will blame me."
Chang An clearly stated to Hua Yi that the fire was raging these days, and he really didn't want to see him or talk to him, so he told Hua Yi to have nothing to worry about, and he went to live on the tower.
Taking advantage of the silence of the night, Hua Yi searched for the city tower with a deadpan face, trying his hardest and hardest. In the end Chang An came out and told him frankly—you go back, it’s useless, I’ll forget about this matter in two days, and I’ll be fine when my anger subsides.
... Hua Yi discovered that Chang'an definitely knows himself and his enemy when it comes to handling his temper.
Suo Laimu looked at him with a half-smile.
Hua Yi couldn't see his wretched expression, so he raised his hand, smeared his palm on his face, pressed it out, and scolded: "Don't be so cheap—like a big girl and a little wife, get together and chatter about your own things." Trifles, if you really want to do that, get out and find someone else to chirp with, and don’t stay in Lao Tzu’s king’s tent.”
Suolaimu stood up, stretched his waist, and sighed: "You think I don't want to, I dream about it. I eat enough every day and stay in the dark, plant flowers and birds, recruit cats and dogs, go back and hug my wife, and tease the children. Nobody dug me out of bed in the middle of the night and told me to go see the dead..."
Hua Yi said without raising his head: "Is it a man? If so, don't dream."
Suo Laimu's voice was interrupted by him, but the smile on his face seemed to be slow, and it took a while to fade from his face. He whispered: "Yes, who told me to give birth? It deserves it."
Hua Yi couldn't help but said: "Wolves want to eat rabbits, and rabbits want to escape for their lives. If you don't want to be a wolf, you can only be a rabbit. What else can you do? Stop thinking about messy things. I think you can live until your grandson is born."
Suo Laimu put one hand on the door tent, turned back to Hua Yi and said, "I'm not a wolf, I'm satisfied when I'm full, and I'm not a rabbit, I'm happy when I live. I'm a human being, how can I not think too much about it? Involuntary."
Hua Yi flicked through Kazuo's letter, paused, pondered for a moment, and then realized: "Are you calling me inhuman?"
A water bowl flew towards the back of Suo Laimu's head.
Suo Laimu shrank his neck, got out of the door, and said close to the door: "Quick battle, king, your enemy this time is different from the past, regardless of strength, it is such a scheming, I am afraid you will lose him One way, it’s better to confront him head-on, mess up his layout, and let everyone speak with swords, there is a little more chance of winning.”
Hua Yi propped his hands on his chin, meditating silently.
After Suo Laimu left, after a while, the slaves outside at night only heard a sudden voice from the king's tent, and they said in a hurried tone, "Go, go up to the tower and find the city lord, saying that I have something urgent."
When the slave heard this, he thought it was urgent, so he didn't dare to delay, and ran out without touching the ground.
Chang'an patrolled the city for the last time, and planned to go to rest, but suddenly such an order came, thinking that something happened in the royal city, he hurriedly followed the panting slave back to the king's tent.
Hua Yi stood waiting for him at the door with a dignified expression, and waved his hands to tell the slaves guarding there to retreat. Then he grabbed Chang An and strode towards the tent: "Follow me."
Chang An followed him in without knowing why, and saw a mountain of things on the table at a glance, frowned, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Hua Yi walked quickly, and while leading the way, he said: "I plan to call for reinforcements for Kazuo, and once we meet those unknown people, we will go to war directly."
Chang'an: "In such a hurry? How do you know how many of them there are? How is the terrain?"
Hua Yi waved his hand and said, "You don't need to worry about these, Suolaimu has his own way."
"Oh..." Chang'an nodded, walked through the small courtyard with Hua Yi unsuspectingly, and walked into the inner room. Seeing that he was still in a hurry, he also subconsciously quickened his pace to keep up, and asked, "Then you call me Come on, what do you want me to do?"
Hua Yi suddenly stopped and turned around, still looking at Chang'an solemnly.
Chang'an: "?"
With lightning speed, Hua Yi quickly raised a hand, passed by Chang'an's ear, and pulled the door shut with such a speed that no one could catch it.
Chang'an: "..."
The seriousness on Hua Yi's face was like changing a mask, and it disappeared in an instant. With his hands on Chang'an's side, he leaned forward and hugged him: "I called you here for something, for example... go home and sleep."
Even falling for this kind of trick, Chang An began to suspect that he might be really a bit stupid.
Hua Yi took the opportunity to lock his limbs without any explanation, hugged his arms tightly, and carried him to the big bed in the king's tent.
Chang An thought that if he opened his mouth at this time, he must be even more stupid, so he decisively prepared to do it, but as soon as he touched the mattress, he was surprised to feel a warm feeling coming from under his body, which was not dry and very comfortable.
Hua Yi murmured, "Warm? I asked someone to cover it with warm jade for a whole day. It's been many days in autumn. I'm sleeping in the city tower... It's thanks to you that you figured it out."
He flicked Chang An's forehead lightly, and whispered affectionately: "Pharmaceutical jar."
Then Hua Yi sighed on purpose, touched his hair twice with great attachment, and said, stepping back and forth: "Forget it, you don't want to see me, I... I'll sleep in the front yard by myself, so it won't hinder your eyes." .”
Changan silently watched him dawdling, dawdling, dawdling, but he did not move to the door after walking for a stick of incense in the 20-odd steps. I can't get past it.
He sat by the bed, touched the warm bed, and finally couldn't help but said: "You... oh, you better come here, I don't..."
Before he could finish his sentence, there was almost a flash of a figure in front of his eyes, and Hua Yi's big face came close to him.
It's really like going in small steps like embroidery, and returning like a thunderbolt.
Chang'an: "...I'm angry with you..."
